    In the UK, secondary education is 11-16, further education is 16-18 and higher education is after that.

    When I was in secondary education you could leave at 16.

      But to confuse things even more, colleges are places to go from 16, not to be confused with sixth-forms which do much the same thing, but are attached to secondary education schools.
